EasyPlus Compact 12/1600 with Digital Multi Control stopping DC charger

Hi.
I have a EasyPlus Compact 12/1600 with a Digital Multi Control 200/200A connected to my van batteries.
I also have a CTEK 250SE DCDC charger connected to the batteries to charge them on the move.

The problem I'm seeing is that the EasyPlus unit needs to be switched on in order for the DMC remote control panel to work, and this appears to be causing the CTEK charger to not switch on to charge.
If I switch the EasyPlus to off the CTEk then works fine, but the remote control doesn't work.

The whole point of me having the remote control is so I don't have to access the EasyPlus, as it's in a (normally) hard to reach spot at the back of a cupboard.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to get around this issue?
Would the Bluetooth remote system work better?

Thanks.

@paulgreen

Have you tried charge only mode on the digit panel?

Can you supply a wiring diagram of how you have your setup wired. What batteries you using and what settings on your dcdc charger you have
